Can Cas9/gRNA recognize SNP? What is the sensitivity of Cas9/gRNA? If the sensitivity is not good, is there any enzyme in Cas family can recognize SNP? or have higher sensitivity? Thanks!
Did you mean that can CRISPR/Cas9 distinguish two target DNA sequences which have only 1-bp (SNP) difference? Probably very difficult (it might cut both sequences).
However, if this single nucleotide mutation or the SNP leads to the forming of a novel protospacer adjacent motif (PAM), then CRISPR/Cas9 should be able to distinguish this PAM-containing allele from other alleles.
See the attached paper: CRISPR/Cas9 DNA cleavage at SNP-derived PAM enables both in vitro and in vivo KRT12 mutation-specific targeting
